Went to the jewelry show with my sister. Was expecting expensive parking. It was only $15. However the food inside was crazy expensive!! $3.50 for a bottle of water!! The staff was very friendly and helpful.
Thanks for a great time! Learned a lot and can't wait to put it to work at my SPCA!
Let's see...how do you review a conference center? It is large...has lots of rooms...is well-marked for finding your way from room to room. Reasonably comfortable climate control. Lots of bathrooms. Expensive snacks. This is notba cheap conference, so this seemed like taking advantage of a captive audience. Finding food (aside from lunchtime) was difficult. Need more availability of food in between sessions. The atrium cafe was always too long a line to get anything without being late. (This review was during Ellucian live 2019...no idea who is actually responsible for this - the conference center or the company.)
Great modern convention center. Plenty of hotels and restaurants within walking distance. Fifth star given for the the strong AC. It is very hot and humid outside.
Attended Orgill show here and it is very accommodating. Very good experience.
Went here for the essence convention and it is huge. Very entertaining on every level
Huge convention center - plenty of room to host several meetings simultaneously. Within walking distance to french quarter...
First class facility. Enjoyed my annual visit for the International Work Boat Show.
Came for Big Easy Con - well lit, spacious and clean. Construction at the front does make entry/ exit a bit interesting.
Visited for Christmas Fest, fast becoming a family holiday favorite event. Always well-maintained.
Its kind of an old building, the bathrooms could use a redo.
Meh. Cheer competition location. Ok as far as that goes
It's huge, so plan 15 minutes if you need to get to the other side.
Bring your walking comfort shoes. This place is the size of 2 city blocks. Lots of standing.
Wonderful experience. Expos and info! Make sure to grab a map. It is huge.
Huge. Helpful and knowledgeable staff. Starbucks line moves fast!
Massive conference center. Was here for Tableau conference.you will definitely get your steps in at this place. Nice theater and ballroom setups. great AV in all rooms.
Nice facilities and has a Starbucks inside the convention center.
I enjoy working here. We have a great hotel and restaurants very close by.
This convention center is huge you get tired walking around this place awesome place to have a convention awesome City the staff is super friendly everybody's nice I had a good experience couple coffee shops which make the walking around a little easier overall great place to throw events
Fabulous convention center. It's huge. It can receive tens of thousands of people. Even several connections are organized at the same time. It is spacious, it has balconies, it is air-conditioned, it has wifi, it has ub starbucks inside. Apparently there was a restaurant before but they are not working. The rooms are modern, very well equipped with sound and projection systems. It is located along the Mississippi River, under the bridge, close to many hotels and a shopping center (Riverside). It has electric stairs. I think they make lifts and bands for rapid deployment on the first floor because of the great distances that must be walked.
Attended many large conferences here. Large place, but clear directions to the many meeting rooms. Clean and very well maintained.
This is a HUGE convention center with many large rooms and still ample space for exhibits, etc.!
They did a HUGE Thanksgiving Feast in 2016. I will be attending my 1st Sports Expo next month there.
This is the largest convention center I have ever seen
Nice Convention Space
The International Work Boat Show is held here and the staff are fabulous. Helpful, professional, friendly just nice folks that are helpful with a friendly smile. Clean restrooms and a great food court. The only downside are the prices of the vending machines...totally outrageous and worse than airport prices...
Positives, friendly staff and plenty of room. Negative was inconsistent WiFi and tripping hazards on the expo floor.
Definitely lacking on the food selection! Otherwise venue was okay but could use some TLC.
GIGANTIC. If you get lost or cannot find something, ask an employee. They are so so nice.
Its an amazing place for a convention, however the food service is terrible. Full of apathetic cooks and servers who don't care. Not good for a tech conference.
Other than the this place made collision amazing :D
It's the perfect place for a convention! It's right on the Mississippi River walking distance to everything. Great restaurants, Casino, and Bourbon Street need I say more?
I like how it is organized ... wide spaces ... seats are not very comfortable except in theater
Nice convention center, best shrimp poboy at the poboy stand
The convention is an amazing place. Large rooms for all kinds of events,with knowledgeable staff
Parking across the street is too expensive. Food & soft drinks way too expensive also. They should give locals a discount.
Holy smokes this place is huge, during essence festival it can be a bit daunting to think you can do and see everything at once. So If there are multiple days during your event, go often to experience everything.
Always great event here. Christmas Fest was the best indoor festival and event we have ever attended. Wizard World Comic Con was great as well!
Different things are held here or is this the airport. Not sure
It's huge and clean, but needs a map and watch out for the carpet on the exhibit floor, it has lumps that 0a tripping hazards.
The place is a nice new convention center. As it turn out, I fell and hurt myself on the stairs -- not their fault. I was just clumsy. Still, it took 20-30 minutes to get the on site medical person to show up. I ended up taking a cab to Tulane ER.
I go to comic con here every year. Huge place, needs better parking.
Very comfortable, spacious, convenient, with modern resources, but cold controlled climate
I really enjoy attending the Essence Festival 2018. This place is huge.
Huge! We'll air-conditioned. They seem to be able to do it all. Starbucks Cafe is a nice amenity. Great location on the river and under the bridges. Easy to get in and out of.
nice location. There was not enough food/beverage for the amount of people. One Starbucks for the whole thing with nothing else open for coffee...long long lines.
Partner of mines had his wedding here great event space
Huge and close to the city center....Just not close enough to have decent food options within walking distance.
It was always clean and the staff was so kind & helpful
Very nice place. Very big and open feeling. Smaller rooms were nice and open as well. Theatre-ish rooms had fantastic legroom and okayish chairs.
Waouh, I've never seen such a place (at the level of the country)!
Good very long amidst 1 mile indoor conference center good facilities food court not great
Large Convention Center. Signage is good. Lots of walking exercise just moving about within.
